Thoracoplasty influence on the cardiorespiratory and immune systems of patients with tuberculosis
Abstract
Study findings on the effect of thoracoplasty (one of the chief surgical treatments for pulmonary tuberculosis) on respiratory function, central hemodynamics, and immune status are presented. High compensatory capacities of the respiratory system and increased humoral immunity were detected, canceling the need for remedial therapy. Treatment with nitrates and ganglionic blockers was proposed for remedy of hemodynamic abnormalities.
